Freeman paces BUHS XC team in first meet

THETFORD -- Becca Freeman finished second in 25:04 to lead the Brattleboro Union High School cross country team in its season opener on Tuesday.

"The weather was very hot and humid and made the running of the hilly 3.1 mile course fairly difficult," said Colonels coach John Dimick.

The Brattleboro girls placed third with 58 points. Woodstock prevailed with 21 points and host Thetford (57) took the silver.

Freeman was the first of five finishers for the purple and white. Caty Yost took sixth in 27:18, Dana Alexa was 20th in 32:34, Emily Gale wound up 22nd in 33:38, and Katie Reynolds ended up 24th in 34:45.

The order of finish in the boys team race went like this: 1st)Woodstock, 2nd)Thetford, 3rd)Bellows Falls, 4th)Rivendell, 5th)Brattleboro.
